Please say yes. Lex has been insufferable about this new deal we’re working on, and we need backup.

Lex:

I’m right here.

Adam:

I know.

Noah:

How’s the newjob going?

Meatball:

Thriving actually! Made friends with the other assistants. Fixed a supply crisis. Only broke one thing today.

Adam:

Our little corporate warrior.

Lex:

What did you break?

Meatball:

The coffee maker. But only a little. Kenji fixed it.

Adam:

Who’s Kenji?

Meatball:

Another executive assistant. He’s one of my new best friends.

Lex:

Of course you’ve made friends (plural) after being there for barely five minutes.

You’d make friends with a brick wall.

Meatball:

I’ve also made friends with Roberto from maintenance. He’s nice.

Noah:

That’s actually smart. Maintenance knows everything.

Adam:

See? Meatball’s a genius.

Lex:

Let’s not get carried away.
